365 by Whole Foods Market, Organic Memphis Madness BBQ Sauce, 18 Ounce
What You Should Know
You'd find this bottle in the condiment aisle or on a picnic table at backyard cookouts and game-day spreads; it’s sold as an organic, crowd-pleasing Memphis-style BBQ sauce. The vibe is nostalgic and comforting — an easy shortcut to smoky, sweet barbecue — but the smooth, shelf-stable texture and ingredients like xanthan gum, caramel color, and natural smoke flavor point to industrial processing. Those additives and the concentrated sweeteners are typical of highly processed condiment formulations.

Common Questions about 365 by Whole Foods Market, Organic Memphis Madness BBQ Sauce, 18 Ounce
Well, 'healthy' can be a bit subjective! This BBQ sauce has 45 calories per two tablespoons, which is pretty reasonable for a condiment. It’s not loaded with preservatives or artificial ingredients, but it does have 9 grams of sugar, mostly from cane sugar and tomato puree. So, if you’re watching your sugar intake, you might want to keep that in mind!
